>You sit still, waiting for an opportunity to do something. Nitori does the same.

>You see the dramatic-acting Sukeban slowly walking toward the waitress. Then she pulls out her handgun and points it point-blank at the waitress's head.
>"Well, what are you waiting for? WHERE'S THE MONEY?" The Sukeban demands.
>The waitress seem to remain frozen in place. You can see that she is trembling.
>"Well?!" The Sukeban says.

//You do know that "large ham" is a metaphor for someone who acts like they own the entire scene, right?

>You give Nitori that look. It takes her a moment to register what you meant.
>The kappa shoots you back a look that can be read as "Oh shit..."
>It's hard to tell how tightly the Sukeban is gripping her gun. But you can tell that she is holding it the "right" way, including having the index finger on the trigger.

Well I don't have anything else short to call her, so she's Ham now.

>Bring our hand up from below; hopefully if ham's watch the waitress she isn't watching us. Rise up with out hand, and grab the gun by the barrel and push it upward. If possible, yank it out of her hand. If not, force her hand into the air where all she is going to shoot is the air. We'll take out next action as soon as we can tell whether we got the gun or not.

>You try to wrestle the gun from her, but she's got a pretty tight grip, and the wrestling attempt resulted in a discharge into a ceiling lamp instead. Now you know this one isn't bluffing...

>You then knees her in the groin...which does just about nothing. Should've remembered that groin strikes only really work on men...
>You follow that with a knee strike to her stomach. But she dodges that...

>The Sukeban then punches back before you realizes it. You felt like you've lost a tooth...

Groin kicks are real bad for women, too. There's less to crush, but there's still a high concentration of nerve ending and less resilient bone structures. It's not a fight ender like with a guy, but it is definitely bad.

//Yeah, noted. But let's assume that Hammy Girl here is tough enough to shrug it off.

>Ignoring the "missing tooth" feeling for now, you make another attempt at yanking out that gun.
>Another shot is fired in the attempt, grazing the side of your head, but you are able to yank that gun out of the Sukeban's hand.

>ITEM OBTAINED: Loaded Handgun - A basic firearm. This one's definitely loaded.

>You whip her across her face with the handgun, causing her to reel back.
>The Sukeban, upon recovering from that strike, spits out a loose tooth (into the yakisoba you were just about to have).
>"Well, I certainly did not see that coming..." The Sukeban declares to you, not giving a damn about your threat.
>You notice the other four Sukeban mooks approaching and surrounding you. Each of them have their crowbars and fists raised.
>"But you should have known that nobody crosses the Yorigami Sukeban and gets away with it!"

//Canon-breaking here: Shion's last name in this CYOA's universe is Mitsutake, not Yorigami. Have you forgotten about the very first post?

//You ended up missing the most important point, by not reading the starting post.

>That crowbar-wielding Sukeban didn't flinch one bit.
>"You've got guts, trying to fight us..." The hammy Sukeban begins to taunt you, for some reason. "You're not from around here, aren't you?"

>"You see, that's where you're wrong..." The hammy Sukeban tells you. "This is our turf, so we do own this place."
>You notice the Sukeban mooks get just a tiny little bit closer to you. Looks like they have a plan of their own...

>Then they all burst out laughing.
>"Hospital? Cops? Really?" The hammy Sukeban says in a mocking tone. "You really are not from around here!"

//Prepare for an unexpected reveal.

>The hammy Sukeban snickers at your "dumpster" speech.
>"We Sukeban does do that sometimes." She says. "But here's how we really do things..."
>Then, in the blink of an eye, the handgun disappears from your hand, leaving you gripping on nothing.
>ITEM LOST: Loaded Handgun.
>Before you can react, the hammy Sukeban raises a hand...with the same handgun you've just lost.
>"Looking for this?" She taunts you as she presses the muzzle against your head.

>That's when you feel something metallic hitting your back real hard, causing you to drop to your knees.
>You briefly see Nitori gasping at what is happening to you.
>"You will regret the day you crossed the Yorigami Sukeban." The hammy Sukeban proceeds to taunt you while keeping the gun barrel pressed against your head. "Oh ho ho ho!"
